The lip configuration besides providing a certain degree of strength and rigidity to the visor, increases the aesthetic values of the visor. The rearward section of the forwardly extending sun shield portion includes air venting areas and light housing passing areas and is formed to conform to the profile of the roof surface of the vehicle to allow the placed lights to extend upwardly therethrough and for attachment of the visor to the cab.
